Use this template to submit a letter to the editor at the Tidewater Review, asking the West Point School Board and Dr. Larry Frazier to adopt a Safe Zone policy to keep all WPPS kids safe at school. You can find their submission page here.
Hello, my name is [Your Name], and I’m a resident of West Point.
I’m calling to urge Superintendent Dr. Larry Frazier and the West Point School Board to adopt a Safe Zone resolution and district policy to protect all students in our schools. Every child deserves to feel safe while learning, and this policy will ensure that our schools remain welcoming spaces for all students, regardless of their immigration status.
Safe Zone policies have been implemented in communities across the country, and they help protect students and families while maintaining compliance with federal laws. By adopting a Safe Zone resolution, West Point can lead by example and show that we value inclusion, safety, and education for everyone in our community.
Please let Superintendent Frazier and the school board know that I support this resolution and hope they’ll prioritize its adoption at their next meeting. Thank you for your time and for listening to my concerns.
